What We Can Do

To prevent global warming, there are some things we can do. One of them is not wasting electricitiy. You maybe wondering how is electricity going to solve the problem. Here's how. If we use less electricity, then fossil fuels will be burned to produce it. If fossil fuels are burned, then greenhouse gases will be emitted. When greenhouse gases are in the atmosphere, the heat is trapped in the air, causing it to raise the temperature. As many of you know, global warming is when the Earth heats up. But, if we reduce burning of fossil fuels, less greenouse gases will be emitted, so reducing global warming. Some ways you can conserve electricity are to make sure you turn off lights and any electronics when not in use. Also, you can use energy efficient light bulbs, LED bulbs to save electricity. Take plugs out from the electric outlet for computers and T.V. Open the curtains when it's sunny out instead of using lights.
